Vi minner om Sabotør-kommandoutpakking og signering, i dag mellom 1300 og 1400.
Første sjanse til å kaste et blikk på og sikre seg et signert eksemplar av en tegneserie som kommer til å gjøre vei i vellinga, nemlig SABOTØR av John S. Jamtli.
Nazistene okkuperte Norge i 1940. Okkupasjonen kom med forfølgelser, fengslinger og henrettelser. Likevel var det folk som sto i mot det nye regimet, og kjempet for et fritt Norge. Sabotør handler om sabotasjeorganisasjonen Osvald-gruppen og deres katt-og-mus-lek med Gestapos verste agenter.
OBS! Vi er også tilstede og selger serien under lanseringsfesten på TILT kl. 1900 i dag...
"What is “Art”? It’s widely accepted that art serves an important function in society. But the concept falls under such an absurdly large umbrella and can manifest in so many different ways. Art can be self indulgent, goofy, serious, altruistic, evil, or expressive, or any number of other things. But how can it truly make lasting, positive change? In Why Art?, acclaimed graphic novelist Eleanor Davis (How To Be Happy) unpacks some of these concepts in ways both critical and positive, in an attempt to illuminate the highest possible potential an artwork might hope to achieve. A work of art unto itself, Davis leavens her exploration with a sense of humor and a thirst for challenging preconceptions of art worthy of Magritte, instantly drawing the reader in as a willing accomplice in her quest."
Historisk tegneserie satt til 1847 i krigen mellom USA og Mexico. Vi følger den 22 år gamle sicilianeren Gaetano Rizzo, som verver seg i den amerikanske hæren mot løfte om statsborgerskap. Etter kort tid blir han selv tvunget til å utføre de samme grusomme handlingene som han flyktet fra.

of this iconic photographer. Graciela’s journey will excite young readers
and budding photographers who will be inspired by her resolve, talent, and

"Nicole Hollander’s internationally syndicated comic strip, Sylvia, ran for thirty years. We Ate Wonder Bread is veteran cartoonist Hollander’s first graphic novel, a coming-of-age story starring the gangsters, the glamourous, the bed bugs, the (enviable) Catholic girls, the police, the jukebox, the fortune teller, and the blue Hudson - the family car, always at the ready for frequent drives into better neighborhoods. Much of the milieu and many of the characters who inhabited Hollander’s progressive comic strip, Sylvia, originated in her childhood neighborhood; not only does this illustrated memoir give insight into how Hollander developed her style and wit, it’s a chronicle of a Chicago community that has since disappeared into an expressway."
"Yvan Alagbé is one of the most innovative and provocative artists in
the world of comics. In the stories gathered in Yellow Negroes and
Other Imaginary Creatures - drawn between 1994 and 2011, and never
before available in English - he uses stark, endlessly inventive
black-and-white brushwork to explore love and race, oppression and escape.
It is both an extraordinary experiment in visual storytelling and an
essential, deeply personal political statement.
With unsettling power, the title story depicts the lives of undocumented
migrant workers in Paris. Alain, a Beninese immigrant, struggles to protect
his family and his white girlfriend, Claire, while engaged in a strange,
tragic dance of obsession and repulsion with Mario, a retired French
Algerian policeman. It is already a classic of alternative comics, and,
like the other stories in this collection, becomes more urgent every
day."
"Compulsive Comics collects the very best of Eric Haven’s
singular brand of inverted-comic book-consciousness and genre-bending short
stories. Haven’s comics, at first glance, look like standard genre
fiction, but upon closer reflection become as disorienting as a house of
mirrors, as layers are peeled back and worlds behind worlds are revealed.
Haven undermines the expectations of familiar comic book genres, whether
science fiction, western, fantasy, or even autobiography. The
Glacier is about a lone scientist making a startling discovery
in the ice, though quickly becomes a meditation on man’s insignificance
in the universe. Mammology begins as a wordless comic about the
dinosaurs before catapulting forward to the author’s present day
apartment, where a secret, ancient war between reptiles and mammals is
revealed.
The volume’s most controversial story, I Killed Dan Clowes is an
epic conflation of autobio and fantasy. While driving around Oakland,
ruminating on the history of underground comics in the Bay Area, the main
character fatally hits acclaimed graphic novelist Daniel Clowes. From
there, the tale careens absurdity, featuring revenge, romance, and a
comics-loving god! Haven’s surrealist, self-reflexive, and superbly
rendered comics surprise at every turn and showcase an inherent joy for the
comics medium."
Surrealisme på sitt beste. Den legendariske undergrunnstegneren Dave Cooper presenterer her to nye, ville historier med Eddy Table. I "Bug Bite" er Eddy Dave Coopers alter ego. I "Mud River" tar Eddy familien med på tur til Europa, som mildt sagt ender i det sære spekteret. Anbefales!
From the Mountain handler om å ta livet med ro. John Porcellinos enkle illustrasjoner beskriver hverdagslige gleder og sorger. Boka er en roadtrip gjennom USA, men forfatteren tar de smale veiene og drar fra småby til småby, observerer, og tegner et smalere bilde av USA enn det store, gloriøse vi er vant med å se.
I 1656 var Diego Velázquez en ledende figur i den spanske malekunstens gullalder. Han skapte et av de mest mystiske og velkjente maleriene i kunsthistorien, Las Meninas (Hoffpikene, eller Kong Filip IV og hans familie på norsk). Denne serien forteller om Velázquez' liv og maleriets unike plass i kunsthistorien, der det uttforsker forholdet mellom betrakteren, virkelighet og uvirkelighet.
Wrinkles portretterer vennskapet mellom Emilio og Miguel, to eldre herrer som sitter innestengt i et eldresenter. Emilio lider av Alzheimer, og ved hjelp av Miguel og andre medsammensvorne prøver de å holde ham unna den fryktede toppetasjen på hjemmet, der de som trenger mest "assistanse" havner. Med humor og dypt alvor skildres historier om mennesker som vet de ikke har lenge igjen.
En samling med tre løst sammenhengende fortellinger. Juliea Wertz' sedvanlige øye for morsomme detaljer er der, men hun tar seg også tid til å dykke dypere i det personlige.
En absurd, vittig og hjertevarmende fortelling. Walt Disney lider av et nervøst sammenbrudd og havner på Von Spatz Rehabillitation Center - et slags feriested for kunstnere i krise. De har studioer, et galleri, kunstsjappe, hot dog bule og et pingvinbasseng. Her møter han Tomi Ungerer og Saul Steinberg, og sammen drar de på eventyr i avslapping og terapi.
Myten om Beowulf en de eldste og mest kjente mytene i historien, og har inspirert uante mengder verk og mennesker fra Tolkien til Hollywood. Santiago Garcia og David Rubin forenes for å bringe historien til tegneserieformatet, noe de klarer ved å være respektfulle til kildemateriealet og samtidig gi det et moderne perspektiv.
"Marxism - A Graphic Guide traces the story of Marx’s
original philosophy, from its roots in 19th-century European thinkers like
Hegel, to its influence on modern-day culture. It looks at Marxism’s
Russian disciples, Lenin, Trotsky and Stalin, who forged a ruthless,
dogmatic Communism, and the alternative Marxist approaches of Gramsci, the
Frankfurt School of critical theory and the structuralist Marxism of
Althusser in the 1960s.
Rupert Woodfin and Oscar Zarate’s classic book, updated by Alex Locascio,
explores the life, history, philosophy and politics of this most divisive
of thinkers, and argues that Marxism remains a powerful set of ideas even
today."
